RFC: icedtea6-1.9.9 PR632: patches/security/20110215/6878713.patch breaks shark zero build

[Xerxes Rånby]

Hi I have re-rolled the PR632 patch targeting the icedtea6-1.9 release
branch.

The patch unbreaks Shark build and i have tested it on the following
four build combinations HS17, HS17+Shark, HS19, HS19 + Shark:

Ok to push?

All performed full bootstrap builds configured like this:

HS17
~/icedtea6-1.9-hs17$ ../icedtea6-1.9/configure
~/icedtea6-1.9-hs17$ make
~/icedtea6-1.9-hs17$ ./openjdk.build/j2sdk-image/bin/java -version
java version "1.6.0_20"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.9.9pre+r78333d0b383a) (Ubuntu
build 1.6.0_20-b20)
OpenJDK Server VM (build 17.0-b16, mixed mode)

HS17 + Shark
~/icedtea6-1.9-shark-hs17$ ../icedtea6-1.9/configure --enable-shark
~/icedtea6-1.9-shark-hs17$ make
~/icedtea6-1.9-shark-hs17$ ./openjdk.build/j2sdk-image/bin/java -version
java version "1.6.0_20"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.9.9pre+r78333d0b383a) (Ubuntu
build 1.6.0_20-b20)
OpenJDK Shark VM (build 17.0-b16, mixed mode)

HS19
~/icedtea6-1.9-hs19$ ../icedtea6-1.9/configure --with-hotspot-build=hs19
~/icedtea6-1.9-hs19$ make
~/icedtea6-1.9-hs19$ ./openjdk.build/j2sdk-image/bin/java -version
java version "1.6.0_20"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.9.9pre+r78333d0b383a) (Ubuntu
build 1.6.0_20-b20)
OpenJDK Server VM (build 19.0-b09, mixed mode)

HS19 + Shark  - this combination fails to build docs that are a know
Shark bug when usiong HS19 and later:
PR559 http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=559
PR701 http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=701
~/icedtea6-1.9-shark-hs19$ ../icedtea6-1.9/configure --enable-shark
--with-hotspot-build=hs19
~/icedtea6-1.9-shark-hs19$ make
~/icedtea6-1.9-shark-hs19$ ./openjdk.build/j2sdk-image/bin/java -version
bash: ./openjdk.build/j2sdk-image/bin/java: File does not exist...
#Shark against HS19 fails to perform a full bootstrap with docs
#apart from that it builds and runs
~/icedtea6-1.9-shark-hs19$ ./openjdk.build/bin/java -version
java version "1.6.0_20"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.9.9pre+r78333d0b383a) (Ubuntu
build 1.6.0_20-b20)
OpenJDK Shark VM (build 19.0-b09, mixed mode)

Cheers
